About the Renault Kwid

The Renault Kwid is an entry-level hatchback available in South Africa across Evolution, Techno, Climber, and Anniversary Edition specification levels powered by a 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine with manual and automatic transmission options, making it one of the most affordable new cars on the market. The Climber variant adds crossover-inspired styling cues including a raised ride height and plastic body cladding, giving buyers a pseudo-SUV aesthetic at hatchback pricing, while the Techno and Anniversary Edition focus on feature additions over the base Evolution. It competes directly with the Tata Tiago and Suzuki S-Presso at the entry level of the South African new car market, and suits buyers for whom purchase price and fuel efficiency are the primary decision criteria.

Who is the Kwid best for?

  • First-time new-vehicle buyers who want the lowest possible entry price into a new car with a full manufacturer warranty
  • Budget-conscious commuters comparing the Kwid against the Tata Tiago and Suzuki S-Presso on running costs and value
  • Buyers who want the Climber variant for its crossover-inspired styling at an affordable hatchback price
  • Urban drivers who want an automatic hatchback below R225,000 for city commuting with minimal running costs
